Higgins: Future Projects

The Model and the Writer (working title)

I've got notes and outlines and even some fleshed out scenes.

This began as a short story that wouldn't come to a close, just kept dragging on. I put it aside for a couple of years. When I came back to it, I found the characters so whiny that they pissed me off. I intended to use a novel-length story to torture these feckless characters and punish them for ever existing.

In the writing however I've grown attached and maybe even fond of them. Their fates remain to be written.

Twilight of the Illness (working title)

I have been collecting notes and tidbits for this for over a year. It will be a revolution in form and in narrative. Imagine if Finnegan's Wake were fun to read--THAT's what I envision for Twilight of the Illness.
